Rebellion, imagination, and a whole lot of heart are set to take center stage as Matilda JR. lights up the Main Street Theatre in Prescott Valley. Presented by Prescott Valley Performing Arts, this beloved Roald Dahl tale comes to life June 20–22 with a junior production that’s bursting with energy, emotion, and empowerment.
At the heart of the story is Matilda, a brilliant and brave young girl with a vivid imagination and telekinetic powers, who dares to stand up to the grown-ups who’ve underestimated her. Unloved by her outrageous parents and tormented by the tyrannical headmistress Miss Trunchbull, Matilda finds hope and kindness in her gentle teacher, Miss Honey. Together with her fellow “revolting children,” Matilda leads a joyous rebellion that shows brains and bravery can outwit even the cruelest adults.
Directed with youth in mind but appealing to audiences of all ages, Matilda JR. is packed with catchy songs, dynamic dance numbers, and laugh-out-loud moments. This family-friendly production showcases the rising local talent of Prescott Valley Performing Arts, known for nurturing young performers and creating engaging theatrical experiences for the entire community.
Catch the revolution at Main Street Theatre from June 20–22. For showtimes, tickets, and more about Prescott Valley Performing Arts, visit pvperformingarts.weebly.com.
